Most homeowners puzzle over whether they need a new roof or roof repair and can't seem to come up with a conclusion. However, this is not such a mystery if you know what to look for. A roof that has too much going on, in terms of damage, is more than likely a roof that needs replacing. However, it's a good idea to know what to look for.

Shingles Curling & Buckling
Your shingles are a strong indicator of whether or not its time to replace your roof. If your shingles have begun to curl and buckle, particularly on the slopes of your roof, it may be a sign that your shingles have reached their life expectancy. Ripped, curling and flaking shingles should be replaced. If there are many areas of your roof that have deteriorating shingles failure to replace your roof could result in damage to the roof boards. However, it should be noted that sometimes curling and buckling shingles are a sign of a defective roof, but you'd need a Jacksonville roofing company to determine that.

Daylight through the Roof Boards
If you notice that your roof has scattered spongy or springy patches, the underlying decking may be deteriorating as a result of moisture. However, one way to know for sure is to go up to your attic to see if you can see daylight through the roof boards. You should also check your insulation for wet areas, this is a sign as well. If you find either condition, it's time for a new roof because this is a sign of leakage.

Shingles Missing in Roof Valleys
One extremely important area of your roof are the valleys. Valleys provide the pathways for rain and snow to flow into the gutter and away from the roof. If your shingles are missing in this area, deteriorating, or chipping away, you need a new roof. If you let this area go uncared for it could lead to roof leaks because these are the pathways where rain and snow will flow.

It's a good idea to know what to look for to determine if it's time to replace your roof. If you know, you can avoid damaging your home beyond its current condition. Look for soft spongy patches on your rooftop and inspect the condition of the shingles, particularly on the valleys of your roof. If these areas are in poor condition it's a strong indication that it's time to replace your roof.

If you have a back yard, getting outside to enjoy beautiful weather is likely a favorite past time. Whether you have a large yard or a small yard with limited space, you can create an inviting atmosphere with simple backyard projects.

A Play Area for the Kids

As a parent, you know that getting your kids outside to play is important. Physical exercise builds strong bones and releases pent-up energy that creates anxiety and sleeping problems. Select a sunny spot in the yard away from trees and shrubs that you can easily see from the house. Consider a few pieces of equipment that your kids will enjoy like a swing set, a see-saw, a jungle gym or a trampoline. If you have the space, you can also include a place for lawn games like horseshoes, lawn bowling, shuffleboard or bat mitten. If your kids are toddler age, a simple sandbox filled with toys, pails and shovels will create a fun outdoor play area.

A Cozy Fire Pit for Warmth

A cozy backyard fire pit will provide a warm gathering spot on cool evenings. It will create a comfortable place to relax with a glass of wine, enjoy conversations with family and friends, and roast marshmallows with the kids. Fire pits are affordable and easy to build. You can find DIY kits for in-ground and above-ground fire pits at most local home improvement stores or online. There are also more decorative, prefabricated fire pits that come in a variety of shapes, sizes and materials that can be placed in the back yard or on the patio or deck. These smaller, more decorative models are great for back yards with limited space.

A Backyard Pavilion

What to do if it's brown out all day long, no electricity, no tv and no AC nor fan? It's no brainer, go to the mall. That was a week ago. Hubby and I got ready and tagged along my 9 year old niece Vernice with us who had no classes that day. So off we went to the mall.

At the mall, we've seen guitars on sale and I know that Vernice really wanted to have one. We asked the price and it's reasonable but we decided to get it later. I saw the excitement in Vernice's face. Then we went to the National Bookstore and hubby bought a ream of bond paper and I bought a couple of scotch tapes. Vernice said it's time for lunch because she was hungry so we went to Hap Chan as usual. Hubby love their fried squid with salt and pepper and he also ordered buttered chicken and rice. My niece got porridge with meatballs and I got porridge with beef. It took a while to wait on the foods as there were other customers too. The servers are all males unlike before that they were all females, but gosh, they were so slow. I even had to ask them to serve the drinks because they already served the foods without the drinks. Hubby said he will not go back to that restaurant again though he likes their food. Very poor service and they don't deserve a tip.

Then we roamed around from store to store window shopping just to kill the time. Hubby is not fond window shopping but he had no choice. I saw a wide brimmed sun hat and I asked hubby to buy it for me. I was happy to find one that I like. Then we went to find seats outside the restaurant where we ate. Vernice kept asking what time is it because she was so excited to have the guitar. Her hands were so cold. So we went back to buy the guitar for her. It's a kid's guitar, smaller than the regular one. Hubby told her he will buy the guitar with one condition, she will play the guitar and sing in the church often once she learned how to play it. She agreed and we asked her to pick the color she wants and she chose the blue. We also bought a guitar case and a pick.Vernice planned to ask my nephew Mark Wendell to teach her how to play the guitar.

I just want to share my bad experience with linkworth.com This site is a scammer. They provided
jobs but they don't pay you accordingly. Since I worked with them, they only paid me once and that was last March 2017 with the amount of $42.00. I tried to reach them a few times, to collect what they owe me but no one
replied. They just ignored all the tickets that I submitted. They owed me a total of $264.02 including this month of May 2017 and I just found out in their
site that they sent me invoices making it appear that they paid me
that said amount thru Paypal where in fact they never did. I sent them e-mails a few times and now they put my account on hold. Darn! It pissed me off so I decided to delete
all their advertisers' links in my blog. I also contacted the advertisers about the modus of linkworth so they will know that I wasn't paid for my work. I also posted this in my Facebook and Twitter accounts to warn publishers and bloggers.

I've been blogging since 2007 and had worked with different websites since then but it's only now that I stumbled with a scammer and cheater. I just found out too that their office is in Lewisville, TX, just less than an hour drive from where we used to live in Texas. If only I'm still there, I will go to their office and collect what they owe me personally. I value my work and I don't wanna be cheated.
Oh well, what goes around comes around.

So publishers and bloggers, please beware of linkworth.com. THIS SITE IS A CHEATER! Below is a screen shot of what they owe me.
